2017 Weekly Writing Log, Part 43

[rynling]

- It was not easy, but I finally finished the last chapter of The Price of Wisdom.

- I threw away almost all of the unfinished drawings I started on cheap printer paper this past year, but I decided to salvage one with Impa and Nabooru. I put my standard three hours into it before I posted it, and it turned out all right I guess.

- I commissioned a cold-weather costume design for BotW Zelda from Loquaciouslass, and she did an incredible job that fills my heart with warmth.

- I commissioned Snailofapproval, the person who used to run the Ask Teh Bowz blog, to draw me a picture of Professor Ganondorf, and they did some fantastic work.

- I commissioned the marvelous Lightsintheskye to illustrate Chapter 11 of The Legend of the Princess, and... what she did really has to be seen to be believed.

- I created my first professionally printed zine! This was a collective project put together by me and about twenty other people, but I was in charge of managing the formatting and printing, which I handled through a local service. The result is not perfect, but I learned a lot!

Congratulations on finishing your fic! And a big congrats on the zine too- it's not easy to put something like that together.

Thank you! And it indeed wasn't easy to make the zine, which really surprised me. I imagine that things like formatting will get easier as I get more practice, but it's a lot more difficult to put something together in a digital format in preparation for printing than it is to just photocopy a bunch of stuff and staple it. Who would have thought lol.

Anyway, speaking of zines, I just saw this and totally thought of you: https://lozarts.tumblr.com/post/168476063311/its-happening-lozarts-winter-fan-zine-im
